National Science Week 2025 | Decoding the Universe

This program is one of the key events of the National Science Week 2025 program in Mparntwe (Alice Springs), organised by the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory (MAGNT).

‘With a passion for unravelling the mysteries of the cosmos and a drive to guide the next generation of space scientists, I have dedicated my career to exploring the universe’s most explosive events and pushing the boundaries of space research. Whether leading experiments bound for the International Space Station, or diving deep into the data of our own galaxy, my journey is about discovery, wonder and endless questions. Join me as we explore the unknown—one cosmic event at a time.’ Dr Sara Webb

In addition, this event will feature Veronica Dobson, Eastern Arrernte linguist, educator, author and ecologist to offer local perspectives on stars and the night sky.

This event will take place in the Araluen Theatre.

Suitable for ages 12+ | Fully Accessible | Places are limited | Bookings recommended

MAGNT acknowledges the traditional owners of Country across the Northern Territory and beyond, and pays respect to Elders past, present and emerging.
